He doesn't need to repeal the Clean Air Act when his EPA conveniently changes how they interpret it. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/epa-clean-air-policy-trump-admi...


Sure he does. You can only tweak around the edges of a law by changing interpretations like that, especially after Loper Bright. That is all he’s trying to do on the environmental front, mostly repealing g regulations the Obama administration adopted in its last year.

This is not a president that’s afraid of blowing things up. If he wanted to defund the EPA he would.


Just like Obama didn't need to add to the Clean Water Act, just conveniently change how they interpreted "Navigable Waters"
